- It's the Hilda-thon! Find total calm with transcendent music by medieval mystic and composer, Hildegard von Bingen.
- On freedom, authority and responsibility. Theorist Todd McGowan joins us to talk about the End of History, what Hegel can teach us about emancipation, and why Slavoj Zizek’s reinterpretation of Hegel is so important. If contradiction is the basis of modern politics, what is its link to freedom? And what is the connection between freedom and authority? Are stable sources of authority even possible in modernity? We also put some listener questions to Todd, as we learn that the Right, just as much as the Left, evades authority and is unwilling to take responsibility.

- We perform Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) calculations on large datasets. We modify the computation both by using fully precise and approximate methods, and by using both CPUs and GPUs. In the end we compute an approximate SVD of 200GB of simulated data and using a mutli-GPU machine in 15-20 seconds. Then we run this from a dataset stored in the cloud where we find that I/O is, predictably, a major bottleneck.
- For many years I managed the British and Irish literature section of McNally Jackson (McNally Jackson divides lit into regions, thus you do not go to any one ‘Fiction’ section, but must first identify the nationality of the author before commencing your search). As a consequence it meant that I was attuned to British and Irish publishing in a way I might otherwise not need to be as an Australian in America. I could recommend good books by the small presses we were table to stock, like

- The ARC Centre of Excellence for Mathematical and Statistical Frontiers proudly presents this lecture as part of its public lecture series. About this event Diffusion is pervasive in the natural world. Over one hundred years ago Einstein created a remarkably simple and powerful theory describing the behavior of a single diffusing particle. That theory has since been applied countless times to successfully model widely disparate systems. In this talk, Ivan will explain a failure of this theory when applied to systems with many particles diffusing in the same environment. In particular, in such systems, the particles that move the furthest (the extremes of the diffusion) are governed by behaviors much different than would follow from Einstein's theory. Ivan will demonstrate this through analysis of a mathematical model for random walks in a random environment, and discuss ongoing numerical and experimental works to confirm the conclusion that we draw from this model. Ivan will also discuss why studying extreme diffusion is important in some physical, biological, epidemiological, and social applications. This public lecture will be 45 minute presentation followed by Q & A. About the speaker Ivan Corwin is a professor of mathematics at Columbia University. He studies aspects of probability and mathematical physics including random interface growth, interacting particle systems, random matrix theory and stochastic partial differential equations. He received his PhD from the Courant Institute in 2011 and has since held positions at Microsoft Research, MIT, Institut Henri Poincare (at the Poincare Chair), U.C. Berkeley (currently as a Visiting Miller Professor), and Columbia. He has held a Clay Research Fellowship, a Packard Fellowship, and Simons Fellowship, a Schramm Fellowship and is a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society and of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics. He was the recipient of the 2021 Loeve prize in probability, 2018 Alexanderson Award, 2014 Rollo Davidson Prize, 2012 Young Scientist Prize of the I UPAP, and gave an invited lecture at the 2014 International Congress of Mathematicians.

- Teko is a package for development and implementation of block preconditioners. This includes support for manipulation and setup of block operators. Furthermore tools exist to support decomposition of a fully coupled operator. Additionally, facilities that allow the construction of approximate inverse operators using the full complement of available preconditioners and solvers are available in Teko. Finally, a small number of generic block preconditioners has been implemented in Teko, including block Jacobi, and block Gauss-Seidel. For the Navier-Stokes equation, Teko has implementations of SIMPLE, PCD and LSC. For details on these methods see Stabilization and Scalable Block Preconditioning for the Navier-Stokes Equations and the references therein
